New York. June 2. New ratea In
teerae passage eastward already
have resulted In enormous Increase of
that class of passenger traffic to
Europe. On some lines cheaper tickets
have doubled and In some cases trip
led the volume of business done at this
season of the year. In some cases per
sons who wished to sail this week have
been told that steamships were filled
to the utmost capacity.
Steamship agents genet-ally agree
that the bulk of those who are taking
advantage of the low rates merely de
sire to pay a short .visit to their rel
atives on the other side and return,
and that few are leaving America, per
manently. On some of the English
steamers It has been remarked that
a comparative large number of college
men are seising the opportunity of
passing the summer In Europe at com
paratlvely small cost.

COMING TO OREGON PORTS.
Merchant Marine Commission to Visit
Astoria and Portland.
Portland and Astoria are to receive
a visit from the Unltett States merchant
marine commission some time In Au
gust Senator John H. Mitchell has
written the Portland chamber of com
merce, Inclosing In his communication
a letter from the chairman of the com
mission which explains that the com
mittee will start for the coast the last
of July, probably heading first for the
sound. ... ,
Meetings have been arranged for the
principal cities on the great lakes, the
first session being scheduled for Chi
cago July 24 and 25. No direct reply
has been had to letters written the
commission soliciting specific Infor
mation as to the time the body would
be In Oregon, and until that point Is
decided, the chamber of commerce will
do nothing toward preparing for the
hearings.
Since the first Intimation was had
that the commission would come west
the Interest aroused has been consid
erable, aided largely by reports pub
lished of the views on the rehabilita
tion of Uncle Sam's merchant marine,
as aired by prominent magnates of the
Atlantic. Comments on the question
are varied, and likewise are the dlscus
alius growing out of the Issue, but
especially onthis coast Is the matter
gauged as important, coming, as It
does, on top of the new federal measure
compelling the shipment of government
goods In American bottoms, and the
realization that foreign vessels now al
most entirely control the exporting
business, the Yankee craft mostly get
ting the benefit of their registry In the
lumber business.
Freaks of Dynamite.
Two Interesting exhibits of the force
of dynamite are shown In the museum
of the Stephens institute of tech
nology in Hoboken. They are steel
blocks, six Inches in diameter and four
inches thick, showing respectively the
Impression of an oak leaf and the Im
print of a headline of a western news
paper. It was during a test of high explo
sives that a cartridge of dynamite was
placed on a newspaper covering the
block of steel, the object being to see
how much dynamite would be required
to split the metal. The dynamite was
fired without injury to the steel; but,
to the surprise of the experimenter, the
print of the newspaper was deeply
pressed onto the metal.
The experiment was repeated, with
the same result, and then was elabo
rated by trying the charge on an oak
leaf placed between the block and the

dynamite. This time the stem and the
ribs of the leaf were deeply Impressed
In the metal.
What happens Is this," said the ex
pert In charge. "Unlike most other ex
plosives, dynamite exerts practically
all Its crushing force downward, and
not In a general direction. So In
conceivably quick and forceful Is the
discharge of this powder that the Im
print of the ribs of an oak leaf are
made before the leaf has had time to
be blown to atoms. In the case of the
newspaper It appears that where print
er's Ink touches the paper the paper Is
hardened and more capable of resist
ance than in other places, and so It Is
that before the paper Is destroyed the
printing on It Is forced deep Into the
metal."
